Comments Thread For: Joshua: Wilder Has Not Been Taught To Box on His Back Foot

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua would bring the fight to Deontay Wilder - if the two of them ever met in the ring. Back in February, Wilder was dropped twice and stopped in the seventh round by Tyson Fury, who walked away with the WBC heavyweight title.

So you're saying he doesn't know how to jab and run around the ring for the remainder of the round...

Well Wilder is a slugger. He is not accustomed to fighting on the back foot. In the trilogy he has to stake out his territory in the center of the ring and don't move backwards.

Force Fury to back up because the last thing Fury wants to do is to trade and exchange punches with Wilder in the center of the ring. It is too risky.

Mayweather, Canelo and Bivol are best fighters to learn boxing on backfoot.

So it took Fury to show Joshua how to beat wilder and now he's all enlightened with the blueprint.

Just like it took Parker to show him how to beat Ruiz.

Here's a question for Joshua then. How does he beat Fury if no one has shown him how cos Fury has never been beaten...hmmm?

Wilder can't force Fury to do anything let alone back him up. He doesnt have the weight or the skills.

Fury can easily dance around wilder on the back foot and out box him for 12 rounds, like he did the first fight until he lost focus and got knocked down for his troubles.

Rising off the canvas like he did destroyed wilder's aura of invincibility.

Fury took Wilders soul that night...

Kronk Fury will walk Wilder down and smash him to bits. Deontay doesn't have the size or the skills to impose his will.

Wilder's best bet is just to come up out swinging for the fences and pray something lands before he gets countered.

Good strategy but it has to come off the front foot. It's where he generates his power from. He can't land any meaningful power punches while backing up on the ropes.

LMAO Wilders not a fecking slugger thats someone like Chisora or Whyte. He's a sniper - low punch output, long range, circles his opponent takes his time until he lands the right shot. Wilder never trades punches he just takes his beating until it's his turn like in the Ortiz 1, he can't string more than two punches together.

This is some next level delusion he could have traded when Fury was battering him but he didn't.

Even the hurt Breazealle backed him off, this guy isn't a slugger.

He is saying Wilder is too ****** to adjust. Like all good champs know how to do.
